Holiday Camp Adventure Days 2026

Statement of Risk

Action4Youth (A4Y) places safety as a top priority. Adventurous Activities involve some risk for the people taking part: we aim to keep these risks as low as possible. The chances of a serious injury are extremely low, but minor injuries (bruises, bumps and - less likely – minor fractures) are a possible result of taking part in Adventurous Activities. A4Y’s staff will minimise actual dangers by:

• Carrying out a careful assessment of all risks before commencing the activity
• Only using experienced instructors with the appropriate qualifications for the activity
• Giving clear safety instructions to everyone participating
• Ensuring equipment and clothing is well-maintained and suitable for the activity and the environment
• Ensuring activities are within the capabilities of the participants
• Asking participants to supply information on any medical conditions
• Ensuring good hygiene standards are kept

We expect participants to co-operate with A4Y staff, to ensure safety of all participants by following instructions and answering questions honestly about any medical conditions or other information relating to health and safety.

I give permission for my child to take part in all activities organised by Action4Youth. I understand that my son/daughter will participate at his/her own risk, and I accept that no responsibility for accidents, injuries or loss/damage to personal property rests with the supervisory staff unless proven to be caused by their negligence. I understand that staff will take all reasonable precautions to ensure safety, and I accept that minor injuries may occur as part of active play. I declare that, to the best of my knowledge, my son/daughter is competent and medically fit to participate as part of the group. In the event of an emergency, I authorise Action4Youth staff to seek and consent to appropriate medical attention if I cannot be reached. I understand that a copy of this form may be provided to medical personnel if required.
